And all across the land there were heard loud “plops” as millions of liberals’ pointy empty heads imploded into nothingness.
From the Hill:
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) signed a law banning abortion in almost all cases, but noted that the ban is unenforceable.
“To the bill’s many supporters, this legislation stands as a powerful testament to Alabamians’ deeply held belief that every life is precious and that every life is a sacred gift from God,” Ivey said in a statement.
“To all Alabamians, I assure you that we will continue to follow the rule of law.”
The ban, which is the nation’s most restrictive, would prohibit abortion in nearly all cases, including rape or incest.
Alabama’s state legislature sent the bill to Ivey’s desk Tuesday, drawing rebukes from 2020 Democratic presidential candidates and other national politicians.
I think there was some tiny hope among the left that she would not sign the bill, but they were wrong. However, there’s this bizarre little bit:
Ivey wrote in a statement Wednesday that the bill “closely resembles” an unenforceable abortion ban that has been part of Alabama law for more than 100 years.
“No matter one’s personal view on abortion, we can all recognize that, at least for the short term, this bill may similarly be unenforceable,” she said.
Why is it unenforceable? In any case, it is done, and liberals are crying, and that makes me happy.
Earlier she wouldn’t say if she would sign it or not:
Odd.
